Potty Training like a pro!

Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement over the past days.... weeks... months that this child has been potty training.  Grandma and I finally came to the conclusion that Mallory was turning into Little Miss Lazy, so we made the decision to just put up with the messes and take away the diapers and put her in panties all day long.  Thank goodness I have a mother who is laid back about messes, because I am NOT!!!!!

I am pleased to announce that Mallory has gone a full week in panties during the day and only wears diapers for nap/bedtime.  We have had fewer and fewer accidents each day, and also fewer and fewer tantrums over using the potty.  I think Mallory is finally accepting this as a way of life and that she needs to get over the theatrics and just "go with the flow"- literally.

Mallory often reads on the potty, and asks for "privacy"after we give her a book.  Look what her book of choice was the other day.... like mother like daughter!  (She call's this "Mommy's Book")

We are rewarding with M&M's and/or fruit snacks, and Mallory is finally getting the hang of this.  I hope this post will not jinx us.... keep your fingers crossed!
